Mellotronists

What just struck me as ironic....

The name Uriah Heep and David Copperfield come from Charles
Dickins.  The latter is pretty obvious.  The prior, I can't
recall from which book...probably the same one!

I noticed that the Uriah Heep mellotron is back up for
auction on Ebay.  This time, no reserve.
